You're no son of mine (don't have any kids btw) because mine would know not to be wrong as ever and try to excuse it away on others. On top of that they'd know to do some research or end up like you (this time) and me (on previous occasions) just because we were to lazy to verify what we were talking about before acting as some authority on it.

It's all over the media here in Dallas this morning. How does anyone "verify" it?

LANDOVER, Md. (AP) — After the game's 10th drive finally resulted in the evening's first points, Dallas Cowboys receiver Dez Bryant stalked around the sideline, cursing and yelling and, oddly, even removing his shoes.

He was upset that the football wasn't being thrown his way.

"I was frustrated," Bryant said of his first-half tantrum. "But then I had to calm down and understand that this is the game. Everybody wants to make plays and be there for their team."

Romo had to calm him down. Then he put his shoes back on.

The story's been told today in the media that he took his shoes off in disgust. I didn't see it, nor do I know anything beyond what they're saying locally.

If he was just changing his shoes, that's not what was reported here.

I think you are a good fan, but you take the local media much too seriously.

Same way you'd try to find out more about anything else that you actually cared about or took seriously. If you don't take it serious whats the actual point of posting the story outside of rile people up that love to get tripled up by this stuff?

I'm not a beat reporter, and this is just football. We're not discussing the elimination of ISIS or how to devalue the yuan before it becomes the global currency.

I go with the word travelled through the news flow like everybody else.

That's probably what happened. I love Dez but his tantrums are unprofessional to say the least.........

Agreed. What would make any reasonable person believe that the media is right on this one?

Were they right on Dez having a tantrum at Romo in the Lions game? No.

Were they right on Dez having a tape 'worse than Ray Rice?' No.

Were they right on Dez celebrating Ricardo Lockett's injury in the Seahawks game? No.

Furthermore, I've never seen anybody apologize for it. Even those in the media that claimed 'if I'm wrong on the Ray Rice-esque tape, I'll admit it and apologize.'

Well, we are still waiting for that apology. Even though it won't do him much good since his contract has now been signed.

Imagine if somebody was lying that many times about a person you know. After a while, you would start to not believe that person and come to the realization that they are obsessed with that other person for whatever reason.

Nope, we just keep buying into it. When it comes to Dez, the media has simply not even come close to earning my trust.

I'm getting sick and tired of his crap. If he is gonna throw a fit about not getting the ball enough, he should probably make sure he catches it in crucial situations (e.g., Tampa).

I don't think he was upset about not getting the ball exactly, it was more about him getting separation and Cassel not throwing his way.

I don't particularly fault either, Cassel had pressure in his face when Dez was open in the end zone, but I'm not sure Dez had a chance to see that from where he was.

What I am mad about is when Dez does get his chance, he's inconstant. I mean, enough with these lowlight "almost catches" late in the game.

Yeah he was almost catching the mess out of the football last night.

The biggest problem here is Dez never gets separation and its hard for a QB to trust the opposite of what they see.

Yeah, like the catch he had in the game where he alertly ran out of bounds to start the drive. Or the incredible catch he made down the sidelines?

You know what inconsistent means, right? He makes plays and then he doesn't, a little too often; especially this season. With the money he is being given, he should be playing near mistake free football. Poor route running (Watch the tape, it's STILL happening after years in the league), drops (Tampa Bay game), and almost-catches that has been plaguing him in big games since 2012.

For someone who continues to make a big fuss on the sideline, he's simply screwing up too much for me to sit here attempting to justify his behavior anymore.

I've been a Dez supporter but his antics are getting old. Players are getting tired of it which is a natural progression.
